  83. # [16:47] <jgraham> It seems to be working this time :)
  84. # [16:50] <hendry> hsivonen: woo, thanks for the link
  85. # [17:00] <hendry> hsivonen: that's amazing. though I guess it's going to require a 'bit of work', hence server side. Also that stuff with faces....
  86. # [17:05] <hendry> hsivonen: i remember you doing some jp2 tests. any future thoughts? I guess we will be playing around with jpg/png for sometime to come...
  87. # [17:07] <hsivonen> hendry: PNG has much better characteristics when it comes to downloading less data in order to render a smaller image
  88. # [17:07] <hsivonen> (assuming Adam interlacing)
  89. # [17:10] <hsivonen> hendry: the problem is that the current crop of browsers downloads full PNGs, and one would want the current browsers to load quarter data and new browsers versions for HD desktop displays to load full images
  90. # [17:10] * guardian_ is now known as guardian
  91. # [17:10] <hendry> that would make sense
  92. # [17:10] <hendry> hsivonen: do you have an opinion on Opera's img { display: none;} ?
  93. # [17:11] <hsivonen> hendry: I don't.
  94. # [17:11] <hsivonen> hendry: is it that Opera doesn't load the HTTP resource but other browsers do?
  95. # [17:11] <hendry> hsivonen: yeah
  96. # [17:11] <hsivonen> seems reasonable
  97. # [17:12] <hsivonen> the canonical way to preload images from a script is new Image
  98. # [17:12] <hendry> in html5 it's speced that img must download
  99. # [17:13] <hsivonen> hendry: I don't understand the problem space well enough to have an educated opinion right now
  100. # [17:14] <hendry> hsivonen: how do you come across this 'Adam interlacing' stuff? do you have tests?
  101. # [17:14] <hsivonen> hendry: in the PNG spec :-)
  102. # [17:15] <hsivonen> hendry: http://www.schaik.com/pngsuite/pngsuite_int_png.html
  103. # [17:16] <hendry> is there some reason why "the current crop of browsers" don't implement interlaced aware downloads?
  104. # [17:17] <hendry> because I am always thinking that if images were somehow well dealt with for mobile env., we'd see a massive break through
  105. # [17:18] <hsivonen> hendry: I'm not sure. but I'd be surprised if current browsers stopped PNG downloads after a quarter of data when the display size to device pixels only needs a quarter of the samples
  106. # [17:18] <hsivonen> hendry: I haven't actually tested
  107. # [17:19] <hsivonen> hendry: I'd be happy to have guessed wrong :-)

  173. # [22:38] <Philip`> After seemingly having logged in with that code, it still says "You must be logged in to vote."
  174. # [22:39] <Philip`> If I log in with an invalid address/code, it doesn't actually do anything different - it just reloads the page with ?email=x%40y.com&code=z and nothing much happens
  175. # [22:40] <Philip`> In FF3, the whole page just says "Scripting error: Script error. in javascript:%20eval(__firebugTemp__); line 0" (plus a Reload button)
  176. # [22:41] <Philip`> (perhaps partly because I've got a half-broken Firebug installed)
  177. # [22:41] <Philip`> Oh, now it says "Scripting error: document.getElementById("no-js-warning") has no properties in http://www.whatwg.org/issues/ line 157"

  179. # [22:43] <Philip`> IE6 (in Wine) has nothing other than a single empty button on the page
  180. # [22:44] <Philip`> (My earlier problems were in Opera)
  181. # [22:45] <Philip`> Aha, Konqueror can log in
  182. # [22:45] <Philip`> but nothing happens when clicking a "vote" button
  183. # [22:45] <Philip`> (Browser interoperability is fun!)
  184. # [22:47] <Philip`> Nice idea, though :-)
  185. # [22:49] <Philip`> I think it would be nice if you could vote on a whole category, rather than having to choose specific emails, since e.g. someone implementing <video> would probably want all of the graphics-video issues to be addressed
  186. # [22:54] <Hixie> Philip`: what browser?
  187. # [22:54] <Hixie> i only tested firefox3 and safari3
  188. # [22:55] <Philip`> I was using Opera 9.2 first
  189. # [22:56] <Hixie> yeah opera has some weird bugs
  190. # [22:56] <Hixie> i didn't work around any bugs in this
  191. # [22:56] <Hixie> you'll need a 100% compliant browser :-)
  192. # [22:57] <Hixie> (for the things i use)
  193. # [22:57] <Hixie> interesting idea regarding voting for a category
  194. # [22:57] <Hixie> though i don't really want to allow that since the categories can change on a whim
  195. # [22:59] <Philip`> Aha, it seems to work in FF3 if I remove Firebug
  196. # [23:00] <Philip`> It also looks like the vote I made in Konqueror did actually get counted, though it didn't give me any feedback in the browser (whereas it does give feedback in FF3)
  197. # [23:02] <Hixie> cool
  198. # [23:02] * zcorpan_ will hunt down the bugs in opera tomorrow
  199. # [23:03] <Philip`> Is it intentional that it doesn't say who each email is from?
  200. # [23:03] <Hixie> yes

  203. # [23:12] <jgraham> Hixie: Am I blind or is there a step missing from the table model construction algorithm? Somewhere around step 18 I expect current element to be set to the next child of the table element but I can't see where that happens

  207. # [23:38] <zcorpan_> Hixie: when pressing the Vote button, shouldn't there be some feedback that the vote was successful or something?
  208. # [23:39] <Philip`> zcorpan_: There was feedback when I did it in FF3
